Always relieve day tank pressure and close the tank
bleed valve to prevent fluid flow to the metering pump
inlet filter. Failure to do this can lead to getting
sprayed with chemical when opening the filter.
NOTICE
Do not open the metering pump inlet filter cap imme-
diately before leaving the machine at rest for a long
period of time. This will introduce moist air to the
chemical and may cause the chemical to react and
not mix properly when dispensed.
This procedure requires exposing the chemicals to
moist air. Have all necessary tools and parts nearby
to minimize the amount of time the chemicals are
exposed to the moist air.
One indication that the metering pump inlet filter
requires service is the low inlet pressure alarms
when there is adequate day tank pressure and fluid
volume in the tanks.
